We’re honored to be attending the Lake County Rising Annual Event on February 9, 2026, a powerful community gathering focused on raising awareness and ending gender-based violence. This event highlights youth voices through poetry, essays, and art while bringing together organizations committed to education, prevention, and survivor support.
This morning we were glad to be part of the Networking Breakfast at Round Lake High School.
It was a great opportunity to connect with students exploring careers in Human and Public Services, hear about their Community Civics projects, and spend time talking honestly about career paths, purpose, and the real work behind serving a community. Always encouraging to see students thinking seriously about how they want to make an impact.
